Wink Air Pressure for BFG AT/KO 305/65/18

I am currently running 50 lbs in my tires right now and the guy at the tire shop says they are good to 65 psi. So what are you guys/gals running your BFGs at? I don't want to under/overinflate them and screw up my wear.

45psi would be fine for regular driving. You do not need to fully inflate them unless you are pulling a load.

I figured between 45 and 50 would be good, but thank you for the confirmation.

I would run them at 45. 50 would be right if they were LR E with a max of 80, but since you have either a LR d or E with a max of 65, 45 would be fine. Even for a loaded truck.

I run mine at 38, good patch on the ground, good wear for 40,000 miles so far. Nice tire. Very quite and handle well.
